Together, Navis and Zebra are already providing WhereNet radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for use in the Los Angeles Long Beach Clean Truck Programme, where more than 15,000 trucks are tagged in order to gain access to the ports and terminals and ensure environmental compliance. Also, the alliance will allow Navis to develop fully integrated solutions utilising Zebra's WhereNet hardware, Wheretags, Whereport and middleware for use in marine ports and terminals.
